Since it's a very big feast in the world of real life soccer, I'd like to start a topic for discussion. :) The draw for group stage is now available, and the tournament is approaching really close!
What is your favorite team? Which country will you root for? Who do you think would be the winner/runner-up?

Hot favourites would be:
Spain,Brazil,Argentina,Germany
As underdogs who could suprise i see Uruguay,Croatia,Ivory Coast and maybe Bosnia and Herzegovina
There are plenty of teams who are very very strong but not considered top favurites,also couldn't say they are underdogs either such as England,Portugal,Holland etc etc
It will be an interesting tournament for sure

Germany or Brasil wil win!
England, Nigeria, Belgium...
I am confident France will come 3rd place after losing their semi-final match. Notable underdogs are: Belgium. France, Uruguay, and Ghana. England will not make it out of the group stage. Holland are also strong contenders and will look for redemption against Spain.
1- Spain
2- Brazil
3- Germany
Other teams have a chance, but these favorites.
as a surprise :
1- France
2- Portugal
3- Uruguay

2- Portugal
3- Uruguay
I don't know why someone call Uruguay an underdogs. They finished 4th in the last WC and 4th in Confederations cup. By FIFA ranking they are 6th and playing in South America gives them even more chance.
Group stage (my opinion):
Group A - Croatia, Brazil
Group B - Spain, Netherlands
Group C - Colombia, Greece or Ivory Coast
Group D - Uruguay, Italy
Group E - Switzerland, France
Group F - Argentina, Nigeria
Group G - Germany, Portugal or Ghana
Group H - Belgium, Russia,
I don't see Brazil in semifinal. Sorry, but to me there are far more better teams. I don't even belive that they'll beat Croatia in opening. They are better than us, but the pressure will take them down. In my book this will be 1-1 or 0-1.

I think that more chance have Camerun vs us then Mexico. If you take a look in their squad they are not very strong, at least I think so...
And hope so :)
